Jenet is a pretty woman who wears her dark hair up in a simple tail with no ornaments. Her face is rather taut, which [[Kaladin]] finds strange for a [[lighteyes]]. She wears a riding dress, a [[havah]] made of a coarse material that has slits from ankle to thigh up the front and back, with feminine trousers underneath. She wears a sleeve over her [[safehand]], even though most of the female grooms wear a glove.{{book ref|sa2|25}} |

+ | She is rather standoffish and is openly displeased by Dalinar's orders to teach a bunch of soldiers how to ride horses. She very curt with Kaladin and she is blunt enough to tell him that he needs his hair cut, despite his rank as a captain. She also hurls rocks in annoyance at prince [[Adolin Kholin]]. She generally lacks refinement and polish in her interactions, which Kaladin finds refreshing in a lighteyed woman.{{book ref|sa2|25}} |
Jenet was attracted to horse grooming because it is not addressed as a "masculine" or "feminine" art in the sacred [[Vorin]] text ''[[Arts and Majesty]]'', allowing both men and women to do the job. Despite her youth, she is Dalinar's most trusted stablemaster. She is extremely knowledgeable about horses and a large team of grooms, both men and women, report to her. She cares deeply for the horses and their safety, expressing concern when [[Dalinar]] orders them to be used on patrol outside the camps.{{book ref|sa2|25}} |

Dalinar ordered her to train [[Bridge Four]] and the other [[bridgemen]] under his service in horse riding. She was not happy to be teaching beginners, and gave a very long, protracted, and thorough lesson on horse riding before allowing the bridgemen to touch the animals. She was particularly concerned about the horses getting spooked. Once the bridgemen began riding the horses, she was easily frustrated with any mistakes that they made.{{book ref|sa2|25}} She seemed both incredulous and amused when Kaladin, who was being mocked by Adolin for riding the aging [[Spray]], said he was going to ride [[Dreamstorm]]. Jenet seemed more worried about the horse's safety than Kaladin's. She watched in both horror and awe as Kaladin briefly rode Dreamstorm (with the help of [[Stormlight]]) until the point that he was thrown off.{{book ref|sa2|25}} |
